I was ready for nice weather/ice free lakes since December! But I don't feel like good fishing hits until the weather evens out a little bit around May.

Hey, at least you got to catch some fish at Sand Hollow! I noticed on my calendar that I made a run in my boat on Utah Lake last March 8. That doesn't help us this year. I'm about ready to run to Powell if it begins to turn on even a little....

UL has open water for a couple hundred yards at the old private Saratoga Resort launch.
My money is on March 15th or 16th to dunk a boat and hit WOT!
